This 1/8 scale PVC statue based on the sculpture by Japan's renowned 'garage kit' artist Toji Tanaka and painted by Shelby (FINE'S GARDEN) charmingly captures the spunk and perky personality of young, cat-girl robot Ropponmatsu.

This limited edition features a special 'see through' paint application with only 800 pieces available worldwide, 300 at San Diego Comic Con. MSRP: $40.00
